In its first fight with organized baseball the Players’ Fraternity scored a complete knockout. Clarence Kraft, the young first baseman whose transfor to Nashville ‘was ordered by the National Commis- sion, will not go to Nashville. Charles H, Ebbets of the Brooklyn and New- ark teams bought him from Nashville for $2,500 to-day and signed him up for the Newark team under a new contract. Kraft will get back pay for the timc he was idle while he was fighting his transfer and the fraternity was trying to get the rul- A ing on his case reversed. ‘The action of Mr. Ebbets made the thie afternoon Mr. Ebbets dutifully ‘went down to the law office of Dave Fults, President of the Players’ Fra- Qemnity, at No. 41 Wall atrest, and @mbmitted to Mr. Fultz the contract fe bad made out for Kraft. Mr. Wults approved the contract and the war ended. President Fults consulted with the Board of Directors of the Players’ Fraternity and they decided to call 6 strike. An ultimatum was sent to Gerry Herrmann yesterday. It wav fnnounced that unless Kraft was re- (nstated in the Newark club before July 22 the members of the Frater- gity in both big leagues would con- gider their contracts of no effect. There was much war talk between oon yesterday and noon to-day. President Ban Johnson announced that if any of the American League players went on strike the club own- would close up their ball yards keep them closed, Similar threats were made, by others, Garry Herr- mann proposed arbitration, but many of his associates wanted to fight.

LONDON, July 21.—For the frst time In the modern history of Eng- land, the King to-day recognized that the cry of civil war was on the lips of many of his responsible and gober- minded subjects in connection with the Irish home rule crisis, His speech to the leaders of the various partion, called together for oppsecaace a6 Buck Ingham Palace, was ver? grave in its tone as Re told them he regafded them | as the trustees for the honor and peace of all and left them to confer in view | of reaching a settlement. The King told them thelr responst- bilities were great and that time was short and advised them to exercise patience and to be earnest and con- ciliatory in their deliberations. King Goorge, in receiving the con- ferees at Buckingham Palace, made the following brief speech: “It 1s with feelings of satisfaction and hopefulness that I receive you here to-day, and [ thank you for the man- ner in which you have reaponded to my summons. It is also a matter for congratulation that the Speaker of the House of Commons has con- sented to preaide over your meetings. “My intervention at this moment may be regurded as « new departure, but the exceptional circumstances under which you are brought to- gether justify my action. “For months we have watohed with deep misgivings the course of events in Ireland. The trend has been surely and steadily toward an a force and to-d is on the lips of the most eaeceite and sober-minded of my people. “We have in the past endeavored to act as a civilizing example to the world, and to mo It is unthinkable, as it must be to you, that we should be brought to the brink of fratricidal strife upon issues apparently so cap- able of adjustment as those you are now asked to consider if bandied in a spirit of generous compromise. “My apprehension in contemplating such @ direct calamity is intensified by my feeling of attachment to Ire land and of sympathy with her peo- ple who have always welcomed me with warm-hearted affection. “Gentlemen, you represent In one form or another the vast majority of my subjects at home, You also have f deop interest In my dominions over sea, which are scarcely less con- cerned in the prompt and friendly settlement of this question. “I regard you then in this matter as trustees for the honor and peace of all. “Your responsibilities are indeed «reat. The time is short. You will, I know, employ !t to the fullest advan- tage and be patient, earnest and con- cillatory, “In view of the magnitude of the Interests at stake, I pray God in His infinite wisdom may guide you and your deliberations so that they may result in the joy of peace and an hon- men’ Seine Goes to Washington, RGH, Pa, July 2.—Mike Mitchell, Pirate right flelder, has been CHANGE MEN BAT TIGERS’ PITCHER OUT OF THE BOX ae ees |Covaleskie Quits After Third, but Change Fails to Stop Highlander Sluggers.
